The young singer has worked on several musical projects in recent years. His recent work includes the Tamil version of “Chikiri Chikiri” for actor Ram Charan’s upcoming film “Peddi.”

He has also released independent music, including the track “Bheegi Bheegi,” as he continues to establish himself as a playback singer.
